The surrounding onlookers were also stunned. Since the assessment began, dozens of people had participated, but no one had ever been as relaxed as Fang Qingxue.

"So powerful."

"Who is this woman? What sharp sword techniques."

"Sword techniques are only one aspect. Look at her cultivation. She's two realms higher than me, reaching the seventh level of the physical body, Internal Fortification. What high aptitude."

"I know her. Fang Qingxue from the Fang Family in Dragon Abyss Province of the Great Li Dynasty."

Even the three examiners showed a smile towards Fang Qingxue.

"Hmm? Why isn't Qing Xue coming out yet?" Shen Ruolan asked, puzzled.

Fang Qingxue, who had defeated the Divine Strength puppet, did not step out of the light circle. Instead, she stood still with her eyes closed.

Her blood and qi surged, and a sharp aura faintly emanated from her body.

"Is she breaking through?" one of the examiners' eyes lit up.

"Indeed, a good seedling. To be able to break through after a battle, it seems it won't be long before our Yuhua Sect gains another inner disciple. I wonder if she can step into the Mystic Divine Realm and find her true self."

"In that case, what's the harm in waiting for her for a while?"

Facing such a promising talent, the three examiners were naturally willing to offer convenience and forge a good connection.

The surrounding crowd also stirred upon hearing that Fang Qingxue was breaking through. Zhang Yuzhen in the crowd was also stunned, suppressing the unwillingness in his heart and forcing down that desire.

This woman's aptitude is stronger than mine. Now that she has entered the Divine Courage Realm, I cannot provoke her. I'm so unwilling!

Although Zhang Yuzhen bullied men and women, his greatest strength was self-awareness. The women he had taken advantage of were either of lower status or cultivation than himself.

As long as someone was stronger than him in any aspect, even if he was unwilling, he would forcefully suppress the desire in his heart.

Shen Hao also sighed, "Excellent. Qing Xue is indeed a rare genius in our Great Li in a hundred years. I am not her equal."

Shen Ruolan, on the other hand, felt a deep sense of defeat welling up. She had heard of Fang Qingxue's genius since she was young. She thought that as a royal princess with constant resources, she could catch up with diligent effort, but she didn't expect the gap to widen. Now Fang Qingxue had broken through to the Divine Courage Realm, while she was still lingering in the Divine Strength Realm.

The disparity was simply too great.

A moment later, Fang Qingxue's aura retracted. She suddenly opened her eyes, feeling the power within her body, and a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

She bowed to the three examiners and then slowly walked out.

The three examiners returned her smile.

"Next."

Fang Xuan said, "I'll go."

After speaking, he clenched his fists and walked towards the light circle in the center of the hall.

"Hmm? You're not using a weapon?"

The examiner was slightly taken aback seeing Fang Xuan empty-handed.

Fang Xuan grinned and said, "No need. These two fists are enough."

"Courageous. Release the demon."

Boom!

The entrance opened wide, and the Divine Strength puppet roared out. A black shadow flashed, and a giant green fist, whistling through the air, slammed towards Fang Xuan's head.

Shen Ruolan was shocked, "Oh no, Fang Xuan is too overconfident. This is a Divine Strength puppet."

Shen Hao also said solemnly, "How could Fang Xuan be so foolish? The Divine Strength puppets are made from Underground Demons. Their physical bodies are much stronger than ours at the same realm."

"It's fine, trust him," Fang Qingxue said confidently.

In the center of the light circle, Fang Xuan, facing the charging Divine Strength puppet, directly surged all the power in his body and met the blow with a punch.

Boom~

An explosion. The air exploded between the colliding fists, and a violent sound echoed throughout the entire hall.

Fang Xuan stood as still as a mountain, while the Divine Strength puppet was directly sent flying, hitting the light circle behind it with a tremor.

Even the three examiners were momentarily stunned by this punch. Having presided over assessments for so many years, they had seen all sorts of methods, but they had never seen anyone suppress a Divine Strength puppet purely with strength.

Fang Xuan grinned, closing in. The Divine Strength puppet, which had been sent flying, quickly climbed up from the ground and lunged again.

Fang Xuan also didn't dodge. He followed the momentum with a punch, hitting the Divine Strength puppet hard in the waist.

Bang!

Accompanied by a cracking sound, the area below the Divine Strength puppet's ribs suddenly caved in. Snow-white ribs with blood directly pierced through the skin.

"Again."

Fang Xuan roared, his fists like a gale. He didn't use any techniques at all, simply relying on his immense strength to relentlessly hammer the Divine Strength puppet.

Bang bang bang!

Bang bang bang!

Bang bang bang!

After stepping into the Internal Fortification realm, Fang Xuan possessed the strength of seven horses, which was seven thousand jin of Divine Strength. One must know that even Fang Qingxue, who had entered the Divine Courage Realm, could not compare to him in terms of strength.

This is the power of foundation.

At this moment, Fang Xuan was like a god of war who would never fall, possessing endless, deep, and long-lasting stamina. The more he fought, the more energetic he became, and the stronger he grew.

"He... what kind of monster is he? Am I... am I dreaming?"

"You're not dreaming, I saw it too. He's actually suppressing the Divine Strength Puppet. How is this possible?"

"Could it be that he's not human, but some kind of demon transformed? Otherwise, how could he possess such immense strength?"

The disciples participating in the outer sect assessment around them were all dumbfounded.

The three examiners were also shocked, their faces filled with disbelief.

"It can't be a demon. If it were a demon, it would be impossible to enter our Immortal Feather Sect," one examiner shook his head and said.

"Could it be that this Fang Xuan has cultivated some martial art, making his stamina and bones so strong?"

"Probably. I've never seen anyone who can suppress the Divine Strength Puppet in terms of strength."

As they spoke, Fang Xuan stomped his foot, and the Divine Strength Puppet was forcefully grabbed by the body and lifted into the air.

"Die."

Whoosh~

Accompanied by a tearing sound, under the shocked gazes of everyone, the Divine Strength Puppet was forcefully torn into two halves from the waist by Fang Xuan.

The three examiners exchanged glances, unable to hide the surprise in their hearts.

"Passed."

Fang Xuan wiped the demon blood from his face and walked out of the circle. Shen Hao immediately gave him a thumbs up.

"Brother Fang's Divine Strength is unmatched. I admire you."

Shen Ruolan looked at Fang Xuan as if he were a monster, even reaching out a finger and lightly tapping him a few times.

Fang Qingxue's expression remained unchanged. She said, "Your strength has increased again."

"It's alright."

Without using weapons, forcefully suppressing the Divine Strength Puppet and finally tearing it into two halves, the disciples participating in the outer sect assessment were all deeply impressed by Fang Xuan. He was simply too powerful and overbearing. A feeling of disbelief arose regarding the strength of Fang Xuan's bones and muscles.

Several outer sect disciples who had already passed the assessment walked over directly.

"I am Tie Kaicheng, son of the Mountain Suppressing Marquis of the Great De Dynasty. Your Divine Strength is truly formidable."

"I am Shan Baofeng of the Great Xu Dynasty. May I ask for your esteemed name? How about we become friends?"

"I am..."

"I am..."

These people were clearly disciples from noble families and were skilled at recruiting talent. Moreover, after becoming outer sect disciples, there was a series of competitions every year, which were much more brutal and naked than the officialdom of the imperial court.

Fang Xuan, having displayed such strength, naturally became a target for their recruitment.
